Historic Cypriot Reservoir Faces Demolition Amid Road Expansion Plans

Cyprus has an old water tank. It is a problem for a new road. The tank is in Strovolos. It is over 200 years old.

People built the tank long ago. It brought water to the town. The tank is made of stone. It is very big.

Some people protect history. They say the road is bad. They tell the government, "Do not break the tank."

Now, the government has a new plan. They change the road design. The road goes over the tank. This saves the tank. It costs more money. It takes more time.

This choice is important. It is about the road and history.
